Lately I've been in a slump and feel like my inspiration is gone. I took a few days off from making beats to clear my head, but it's only gotten worse. I keep digging and digging for that right sample but no luck yet. Any suggestions on what to do would be appreciated.

it happens
you cant force it.

do something else creative that you already do. Like if you're a writer, write. An artist, draw. etc.

Take a month off and try to learn a new instrument like keyboard or guitar.

Travel. Change your settings for a second. If you've got people on the opposite end of the country, go holla and take it easy. Always works for me.

DL my album, "Potential Remains" here:

It happens to everyone. I usually make beats on a different piece of gear when this happens. Try to challenge yourself in a different way so you can break out the repetitive mode. Also now that your in a slump you can take the next couple weeks digging for just drums and sounds and saving those. By the time your finished collecting sounds you will be itching to make a beat.
